Igniting Passion. Actualizing Potential


Kindling Studios, a program fueled by IGNITE Collective, Inc., is a working art studio for entrepreneurs with disabilities in Camarillo, California. The studio opened in 2015 and currently supports about twenty artists with developmental disabilities. Artists work in an inclusive community setting to learn and practice art and entrepreneurial skills, and to sell their work. With the support of a small team of paid staff and rotating volunteers, Kindling Studios artists engage in curated art shows, art sales, conferences, educational opportunities, and outreach events. We believe everyone has the right to a high quality of life. We strive to grow and support autonomy, fulfillment, and community engagement for all.
